Surviving Heartbreak

Through Heartbreak To You

The love that follows your first goodbye

Is heavy, like a storm-filled sky.

You thought the pain would never fade, 

That your heart would break each time it swayed.

The first heartbreak left you shattered,

In pieces, feeling small and battered.

You swore you'd never love again,

Afraid of facing the same end.

But life moves on, and so did you,

Until one day, a love felt true.

You opened up, despite your fear,

And let another come near.

Yet this new love, too, slipped away,

Leaving deeper scars in its place.

You wondered why you tried once more,

When love could hurt you to the core.

But through the tears and all that pain,

You found a strength you can't explain.

You learned that love is hard and raw,

But also something worth fighting for.

Then one day, when you least expect,

You meet someone who takes your breath,

Who makes the past make sense at last,

And heals the wounds from lovers past.

And in their eyes, you finally see,

Why love's a journey, wild and free.

For every heartbreak, every fall,

Has led you here, and made it all

So worth it—every tear you cried,

Every time you felt like you died.

For this love now is pure and true,

And all you've been through brought them to you.

So though love's road is long and steep,

And full of nights without much sleep,

You'll find that when the journey's done,

The love that lasts is worth each one.
